Call This Crazy

I am heading to Chattanooga today and spending the weekend in a cabin with Sally and two of my best friends, Jennifer and Emily!  About 15 weeks ago, I 'accidentally' responded to a text saying I was all in....It wasn't until a few hours later that I realized that I had just signed up for a half-marathon..and NOT the 10K I thought was mentioned. 

I immediately went into to panic-mode and getting a training schedule together. There is a huge difference in running 6 miles vs. 13.1. My first run was half a mile. And it was beyond hard.  I never thought I would be able to do it, but I kept to my plan and had Jay running every step of the way with me.  And all of a sudden I was running over 10 miles outside...without stopping!

I am really nervous.  I have a sore right calf that I am resting and taking care of with heat and ice. But there is no turning back I guess. So hopefully I come back home whole and uninjured:)

Project

Muffin, Peaches and I went on a LONG nature walk yesterday, and we came back and glued down most of the pretty things we collected.

The Little People





Anyone want to take a guess at what was in the bowl Solon was licking clean.  Ranch dressing.  I gave him some carrots and ranch for dipping, and surprise..guess what he liked most.

Soccer Update








Peaches Galore


She had her 6 month check up a week ago, and she is in the 98th percentile in height (29") and 89th percentile in weight (15 lbs 12 oz).  And now she is officially eating three meals a day!

Want You Be My Neighbor

One of Solon's favorite people, Stella, came over a few times last week to play.  Here they are making pirate treasure maps:)

Sunday Fun












We cooked pancakes for breakfast! Then headed out to Piedmont Park for bike riding and running around.
